Galena had gone six days without food or water but was “completely unharmed” with healthy blood work, Clark said.

Galena’s owners were reunited with her in the vet’s office 48 hours after being called, Hunter said in an April 19 Facebook post.

Clark said she couldn’t have gotten there fast enough.

“With the help of my mom watching our kids, (Clark’s husband) Matt and I jumped on a plane the next morning and headed straight to (California) to get her,” she wrote. “ ... Once we landed we got a rental car and drove another 1.5 hr to the vet. You can imagine our adrenaline! We made it!!

“We met Brandy (Hunter) and were reunited with Galena at the vet!!” she added. “Brandy (Hunter) told us Galena heard my voice when we walked in and she immediately reacted.”

 

Hunter said she was “so very grateful I was able to be a part of this amazingness and turn something so traumatic and unbelievable for everyone involved into something positive with a very very happy ending!”

And Clark said she was in “awe of all the little and big miracles” that took place during the chaos.

She said she “couldn’t imagine living life without” Galena and credits the reunion to Hunter’s “kindness.”
